Why not eibach's?

Here in the US Eibach has springs only for the IS350. I'm sure it will work for the IS250 tho.

Bump for the view!

My car has about the same height and I won't dare go to country side like that.

Wow, so many comments at a time! Thanks to all of you!
You need to sell the IS and get a 4x4 and do some real off roading!
hmm you you must wash your car often ...driving in rural areas..
My car has about the same height and I won't dare go to country side like that.

HaHa, I thought 10cm clearance would be enough for an off-road trip
Seriously spoken, I walked all the way before driving into there, making sure there was only soft grass and nothing stick out! Didn't want to end in a tractor pulling session. I'm used to have a dirty car during spring and fall. Lots of farmers around here coming from the fields with their tractors leaving all the mud around. It makes me angry sometimes, but well, they just do their job.
Hey, Lexus should bring out a real off-road version of the AWD, like Subaru does.

Now i'm sold on fabulous front lip. nice pix!!

Hm, looks like Fabulous will have some benefits in the future...

As for my exhaust and springs, I'm completely happy with these. The quad really makes it look different and I like more this classic way then on the IS-F. (The exhaust was due to having no other choice as I need TÜV approval. Otherwise I'd have gone for the Fabulous or the Lexus HKS.) The H&R ride is not too hard even with the 35mm drop. And it makes the stock wheels look flush. Hopefully I'll get new rims next spring but I will stay at 18" for not to loose more comfort. Of course offset will be adapted to eliminate the spacers.

Lets pic 1 from both sets is great! Love the color in set 1. You should post those over to the "october post your pic of the month" thread under digital photography on this forum. Nice shots!
Thanks for the advise! Didn't think of it being that good, but after all the positive comments, I'll do it now!
